You are invited to view the concept design and provide your feedback about the draft concept plans. The concept design for Springleaf Reserve Playground envisions an exciting new play space that caters to a wide range of ages and abilities. Situated near the new pavilion and netball courts and between two ovals, the playground will offer diverse equipment and play opportunities.

Key Features:

  • Climbing unit with a slide
  • Swings set with an accessible basket swing, toddler swing, and strap swing
  • Accessible roundabout
  • Mound slide positioned on a small natural mound
  • Rocker located near the picnic area
  • Nature play elements incorporating logs and rocks

Additionally, the playground will feature two small forest areas for shaded, exciting nature play. A new concrete path will be introduced, connecting the play space to the pavilion and netball courts. Shade trees and park furniture will be strategically placed to enhance the overall quality of the space, with a large feature tree serving as a focal point. Centrally located lawn area will expand picnic space and create opportunities for informal play. This design ensures a welcoming environment for all ages and physical abilities while preserving opportunities for adventurous play.
